Is no one going to talk about how great an interviewer Megan is ? She always seems so personable and you can tell she cares about the fighters and the sport as a whole.
well said
100%
"He's gonna have to walk through hell like Khabib did" Ohhhhhh Brother, this guy!
@@OwenPrescott but he should've just said walk through hell like Tony
â@@UchihaMadara-ik8eu Justin landed all his leg kicks and some heavy right hands to his face that would have rocked lesser men. Khabib's cardio and chin are on another level. No other opponent to Khabib has landed shots like that on him. We saw Chandler drop Charles early in round 1. Does Justin punch harder than Chandler? Unlike Chandler I think if Justin manages to drop Charles he will let him get back up and won't risk following the fight on the ground the way Chandler did.
He's correct... Gaejthe landed some bombs on Khabib and had landed hard legs kicks. The last leg kick that landed buckled Khabib's leg pretty bad.
@@UchihaMadara-ik8eu Well you gotta remember Khabib only lost like 1 or 2rds his whole career but yeah I wouldnt say walked through hell lol Thats a bit much. Its kinda hard to reference other fights considering his most recent ones were to ppl who Charles beat (beat better/faster) and 1 of them beat JG. The others arent even in the UFC anymore. I guess the only thing JG can say is he fought Khabib but Charles never had that option. Lol
It wasn't even competitive. 2 Rounds to get finished. Fans talk about how bad the leg kicks were. I think it was around 10 clean shots. And Khabib walked through. Meanwhile Dustin and Conor both gave the guy 4 rounds
U can literally feel Justinâs punches and kicks thru the tv screen the way he fights man is something else
Yep he just needs to stay on his feet.
I get your point. I mean I don't "feel" them but he's intense and it's clear to see. I can certainly imagine how bad it hurts lol. Dude is a animal. I'm hyped for this fight.
@@colostrum590 Charles submitted Dustin on his feet
@@1000parsley who do you think is going to win?
@@colostrum590 I want gaethje to win, but his wrestling vs khabib was so poor that I think Charles will win
I think his fight with Khabib prepared him for this type of fight. Hope Justin wins.
đŻđșđČđșđČđșđČđșđČđ€đŒ
I hope so, but shitty cardio is hard to fix though
Dustin probably thought that too
ND still
@@TiraiKelabu shitty cardio made him land 23 min on tony, just where the f you came with that.
Meanwhile somewhere in somebody's garage gym Tony is doing secret Ninja training like throwing invisible sand and shit đ
âIf I went 5 rounds with Chandler, he wouldâve diedâ
The scary thing is that thatâs not even an exaggerationâŠđ
Thats exaggeration, chandler had been going through worse lol đ
@@TiraiKelabu It's really not, the Bellator guys are good but Gaethje hits different.
@@longan369 bellator guys? You mean will brooks who knocked the sense out of chandler? Or eddie who beat gaetche by tko?
@@longan369 why do you think chandler would die when we've seen lot of crazy fights in ufc and no one actually die?
@@TiraiKelabu It's a legitimately stupid thing to say. Gaethje was actually just promoting himself, trash talking a little. These fans out here are the same people that said Sean Strickland "is a legit psycho/serial killer, he's nuts" the week before he got exposed. Anyone who saw Hooker after the Poirier fight, Or Kattar after Holloway, or that one girl that almost died against Valentina, knows. Dustin withstood Justin, and finished him. Hooker was a former 145er, and Dustin didn't kill him. But Justin hits different? Yes he does. With his head down taking counter shots on the forehead
Wish he will get the belt. He is a very good fighter and a brave person
Yeah man... Just wanna see that belt wrapped on him
UFC 274 its Gaethje 27th fight and he can get his 4th loss in that fight like 274...So Rigged đ
Khabib didn't walk through hell facing Justin đđđ
Khabib went through all that training and weight cut for this hell fight and after Khabib was done he was like. ..This fight number one bullshit
What a great interview and a great setting! Thanks friends
11:00 _The conversation misleading O_o_
14:50 _What the Highlight believe being in the Technique Chin :0 :0_
19:36 _The Gaethje's will to steps in in the Technique Chin =-O_
bruh i love watching Justin fight its always so entertaining and MSG is legendary
Thereâs a difference between quitting and being smart to avoid brain damage. Live to fight another day.
Fortunately all humans are built different. Some can take substantial damage to the head with no repercussion while others take minimal and end up with major brain damage.
You are definitely right-fight intelligently, because you donât know which spectrum of damage tolerance you lie in.
He quit against Khabib. He was tapping so not sure why he talks about quiting when he was the last one to tap compared to Charles
@@ral8672 nobody can take repeated blows to the head without consequence
@@TERRORdrigo never said that, re-read what I wrote.
@@chicago1680 he tapped twice against khabib đ
respect for justin he put his shoes off to go on the mat
True mixed martial artist
Gaethje is being underrated for this fight. Gaethje hasnât been taken down or controlled by anybody other than Khabib. Expect this fight to end of the feet. Gaethje KO or Oliveira TKO.
He fights in division full of strikers that use wrestling sometimes as the last resort. I still doubt that Gaethje can protect himself better than Poirer
people said the same thing about dustin⊠khabib being the only one to take him down consistently. Yet Charles did it with ease
UFC 274 and its Gaethje 27th fight and he can get his 4th loss in that fight like 274...So Rigged đ
@@bobbytowsend6431 bruh what ahahah
@@RobertTheWise1 This is false, Hooker took down Dustin multiple times and maintained top control for decent portions of their fight.
Justin Gaethje is a fighter that sits on the cusp of this world and the shadow realm and what makes him scary is that he's perfectly comfortable highlighting himself in both these world's at the same fucking time.
I think people are buying into this wrestling aspect of the match up a bit too much.
I can see Charles stopping Gaethje on his feet.
Thinkig the same
I hate to be that guy but, Oliveira's standup is sorely underrated. Justin may have more power, but I give the technique edge to Charles. He has variety of ways to attack, besides just great boxing and leg kicks(no shade).
For sure it will be a good fight I think Charlie wins Justin needs too KO HIM
UFC 274 its Gaethje 27th fight and he can get his 4th loss in that fight like 274....So Rigged đ
I think might be just what loses him the fight if he lets his ego get in the way and stand toe to toe with Gaethje but Charles is very smart and humble so it will be an interesting fight
I just love Gaethje. Love your talk bro.
JG please donât shit on Charles for being a quitter. It was a long time ago. He was in the wrong weight class. His last few fights are enough to prove he is not a quitter. As a side note, JG said in the buildup to his fight against khabib that he wont tap and rather pass out showing us the ground version of his âno quitâ mentality. But he did tap befor passing out. Its on tape. JG as much as i love him faces the prospect of another tap out so should be a bit humble and show some reflection when talking about Olives as it can come back to bite him
Think he forget he tapped like couple of times vs khabib đ
your gonna talk sh*t about Justin when Charles been ko'd and tapped several times? lmaoo
i cant wait for this fight. good luck justin
Justin's mindset is quite different to most fighters, I find it very intriguing, especially when he talks about that special place he goes to when he fights. His description of that place, with no noise, and time slowing down sounds just like he has gone to the same place that many mystics have been known to describe in their experience of what is known as "the other world." While they get to that place with ritual and meditation, Justin gets there with his rituals of training, and then fires his spirit to that special place with the art of violence! Great interview, Megan! I hope Justin wins!!
It's just high adrenaline
@@_Azeem_ I think that is a part of the process of fighting, but there is more to it than just adrenaline because consciousness still isn't fully understood by our current sciences and is still a bit of a mystery.
Canât wait for this fight đ©ž
We want the embedded
MMA Is a TUFF sport.I hope Justin Gaethje and Nate Diaz and Tony Furgenson have a happy well enjoyed life after the MMA.
Gaethje holding his interview in Wrestling room is definitely not sending a message lol
He's done after Do Bronxđ„
Gaethje got this â€ïž
I'd like to think so, i'm pretty sure Charles will win tho. This sport is full of disappointment.
Letâs go Justin đđ
love Megan. She's so good
Dudes a beast, Oliverâs is technically sound and impressive as he improves as a fighter, but JG is a monster thatâs gonna break Oliveraâs will to continue as a fighter, but then again I canât see JG fighting much longer..âđŒđ€Œââïžâïž
You gotta be smoking if you think Justin has a chance đ
@@BRlGADE_KINGPIN Itâs stupid to assume Justin doesnât have a chance at all, Olivera has a massive opportunity to win with his striking and grappling but Justin has shown he can be very technical and powerful on his feet not to mention his chin is great. I think itâs gonna be a good fight
Gaethjie gonna jump into oliveras guard and get submitted đ LMAO.
@@yurifrommw215 I think so.....but if Justin lands a uppercut Olivera sleeps
@@yurifrommw215 and if Justin hits Olivera with one of his uppercuts or a good left heâs going to sleep. This fight can go both ways for sure
Gaethje by TKO. Lesssgooođđđ
She is the best interviewer right now.
13:11 That's some stone cold shit right there
This is what having a bad audio engineer sounds like. Megan talks (Vol Down) Justin (Vol Up).
Gathje got this oneđ„
Whatever happens on 8th of May 2022, when this kid becomes LW Champion, it will be a great day for the sport.
Is it only me or UFC is giving more attention to Justin than Oliveira? đ€ Hope I'm wrong on this for the good of the organization... Nganou received the same treatment and didn't go that well đ
Donât think Charles is in the country yet, canât film as much content on him
They have representatives in Brasil, they even have an official UFC Brasil CZcams channel so it can't be an excuse... đ€·đŸââïž
@@dvsbeats7402 yea it can be whenever majority of filming fight week takes place near where they are fighting đ€Šââïž attention from the ufc doesnât matter if anything Justin needs it more we all know Charles is a star
CAuse Oliver busy puttin work in the gym not time to rest
Every single fight again and again. UFC and a lot of people underestimate Charles. Funny how JG is bragging about his win over Chandler by points whereas Charles knocked the guy out at the beginning of the second round.
The Media keeps hyping Gaethje Wresting skills, just as before the Khabib fight. Not a surprise if he gets choked again.
He will charles doesnât want to trade if he does heâs stupid lol
Lmao
The only thing they hypin up is Charles wrestling skills cause he aint got the wrestling Khabib has to take Justin down like that...but most of these people started watching mma last year so its the recensy bias XD
Lol Charles canât take gaethje down easily like khabib did
@@user-vn8ep4ng55 thats what all these libtards say that he will take him down like its nothing lollll 4 days left lets see/....
All I can say is may the best man win .
His head is huge! He's Like buzz lightyear
Havent we seen this yet
exactly what i was thinking
Thank you for taking off your shoes on the mat
"The DMT who knows what we release" - Roganesque
This foo has overlooked Do Bronx. Khabib submitted this guy in 7.5 min.
Props to Gaethje still having the mindset of not having shoes on the mat đč
Your my hero... please get me two tickets Justin!!!
Since you can't spell your correctly he said no. It's you're not your. Smh
AND NEW!!!
They both look tiny in those chairs XD
Thank you! Why did they choose to humiliate Gaethje by making him look like a little person?! đ
O Charles vai te pegar!
Golden quotes: âCovid was a thingâŠ. Maybeâ and âadrenaline, all the endorphins, the DMT, like who knows what we releaseâ
Whos the last gym to have 3 champs? Aka? With Cain, Rockhold, and DC?
WOW!!!
Dude predicted getting choked out within 3 minutes of the very first round đ¶
Tbh, I didn't expect Justin to tap like chicken đ
iâll show megan what a full guard is like
Megan :*
I'd say the smart money is on Gaethje, not because I think he's favored to win but looking at the odds I'd say there's some decent asymmetrical upside, I definitely think Gaethje has a better chance than what the odds would have you believe. Oliveira has had some fights in which he has struggled and if he doesn't bring his A-game I think he loses with margin. Gaethje on the other hand is gonna have to try and stay on his feet in the later rounds, and if Oliveira is on top of things I think he'll end up submitting him if he's not really, really careful.
I think Charles is too confident striking with Justin but also Oliveria has brought his A game ever since he had his new gym and is 10-0 since.
@@scottc2076 yes, very true!
@@identifiesas65.wheresmyche95 I have a feeling about Justin but rationally I think Charles will take it
They should really be talking CTE.

Watching just for Megan
You do know she's Ben Shapiro in drag right?
@@lovecchio420 interestingly I've made the same comparison.. All this time I thought she was joo, but turns out she's Italian. The resemblance is uncanny.. Even her nasal vocals
Whereâs Tony?
Is his mic worse than hers? I swear he sounds more muffled
His nose is so jacked up
Did you know Justin started hard work and fighting at age 4 months old?
Why they gotta put him in the baby high chair đđ
Haahaa yeah the thumbnail looks like something from Boss Baby
Stop making fun of a Mexicans height. Thats racist.

Why didn't Megan ask Justin how early in the 1st round did he plan to give up and tap out?
Justin said it himself.... within 3mins
He predicted his own loss
Megan I love youđ
"...the education part..." "...As a competitor, I always wanted to prove others right more than wrong..." Man, this is so great, this guy is a global treasure. Love Gaethje and hope he wins but he lost his edge, I believe. He is thinking about lost opportunities
he said hes never quit he did aiganst khabib all respect tho

if that happens islams gonna be champ 100 percent lmao gaethje has nothing for islam i feel like
@@goofygoof212 I agree and I don't think he will be the champ on Saturday, Charles is good with mixing his strikes up and will most likely TKO/KO gaethje or submit him.

Embedded when?
I want to demonstrate how to do a double leg takedown, with Megan as my assistant.
Hope Charles Äșeg is ready
Damn fighting seems like a cool life youre real life anime character
Homer Simpson of MMA by KO round 2.
Oliveira is getting melted
I remember driving into town,with my dad.All my stuff in my car completely alone. ?????????
You can see it in his eyes that Justin is a stone cold killer !
I hope all the Olives D riders donât delete their comments after the fight.
all that collegiate wrestling to get choked out in 1st round
Because he doesn't practice wrestling
Awkward distance and camera angles
Why are they on lifeguard chairs?
Looking out for great white sharks. Duh
If you know mma you know that Charles is the better wrestler
Everyone counts gaethje out in each of his fights and he almost always shocks everyone everytime
Except for when it really counted and then he ran around the ring like a child...
@@lovecchio420 I'm sure that comment means something.
@@lovecchio420 he avoided khabibs takedowns the most if you look at the fight technically... That's prolly the best way to beat khabib if you're not able to defend on the ground well enough.. but then again who could possibly defend against the guy that mauls everybody đđ
Justin said he's never quit....He tapped before he passed out against Khabib. Keeps it 100 JG
Are you for real? He's talking about getting hurt and quitting. Justin never quit when he was literally falling over under punches from Dustin, or Chandler, or Eddie. He always stays up and he keeps fighting. Getting submitted knowing you lost the fight is something completely different and you're pretty dumb to even say that.
I said the same thing dude went tap tap tap
He was asleep. You see the fight?
@@wade6663 we both said he went to sleep and did tap not sure who you are talking to
@@chicago1680 I didnât say anything about the tap while going to sleep. Thatâs the bodies reaction of years of training and not a choice. Take care
He sounds nervous to me , I think he's afraid of grapplers after Khabib. Tbh I'd be scared too. The stakes are high.
Oliveira winner
Love u justin but I think he's getting RNC
This guy has insane striking technique! I genuinely hope he wins. But his wrestling is zero, unless he adapts to a more grappling technique. He has 0 chance against any of the top 10 dagestanis, literally 0 chance...
Thousands?
DO BRONX gonna wipe the floor with Homer..đ„
Justin: Iâve never quit Iâve never shown that I will quit
Khabib when he had him in that triangle: đ€šđ€š
Tap tap tap

Gaethje can't wrestle or grapple for shit. His tdd is his best wrestling ability. Oliveira will sub him
